Disable LockScreen – HD2 Stops Freezing….It’s Magic

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – NRGZ is a genius. I saw this tweet from him yesterday and since my HD2 (since the TMo ROM upgrade) had a weird freezing issue especially in Sense and I don’t like the lockscreen anyway I figured I’d go about disabling it to see what happens…and it’s fixed. If you’re using a TMo HD2 with the 6.5 lockscreen enabled disable the thing – it’s doing bad stuff. [There’s still a little bug in HTC Messaging but that’s a separate issue entirely.] There are two lockscreens on the HD2 – disable them both and just use the power key to turn your screen on and off. The registry values are:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen = 0

HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\DeviceLockWhenSuspend = 0 [if you don’t have this then add it]

Thanks. This registry changes helped after my HD2 changed the lock screen password (don’t know how it happens but seems an issue with the gtx theme) and without this registry values i’d have to hardreset

I am using HTC HD2, My lock screen just freezed. Unable to login. It accept the password but stays in the same lock screen it doesn’t show the home pages. I have tried restart through removing the battery. But its doesn;’t helped me.
